Campaign Update

Conservative Leaders Back Obenshain

The strength of a party, a movement, or a campaign can be found in the trenches—in those who are recognized as leaders, not because of any titles or positions they may have picked up along the way, but because they know what it means to champion our values and our causes not from an office, but on the ground.

They’ve made innumerable phone calls at headquarters, knocked on countless doors, and stuffed envelopes. They’ve served on their local committee, joined and often led conservative organizations, and articulated our principles.

They’re the sort of people you find on a winning campaign. That’s why I’m so pleased to roll out this partial list of conservative leaders who are backing my candidacy.*

Of course, that list doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface. I’m humbled by the number of grassroots activists across the Commonwealth who have committed their support, and I hope that you will number yourself among them by clicking here to join Team Obenshain.

Before Christmas, I shared a list of members of the Republican Party of Virginia’s Executive Committee that are publicly supporting my bid for Attorney General; click here if you missed it.

SJ 256, my resolution which could result in a constitutional amendment that expands charter schools here in the Commonwealth, just passed the House of Delegates by a vote of 58-42. Big thanks to Delegate Rob Bell who also worked very hard on this issue.Posted Tue, Feb 24.
